Double Reverse SpinQuickstep

NotesThe Double Reverse Spin is listed as Bronze in the ISTD syllabus and Goldin the IDTA syllabus. Our explanation for this disparity is that the ISTD requires some difficult step patterns to be learned earlier, while the IDTA ranks the figures in ascending difficulty. From the earliest editions Alex Moore's Revised Technique onwards, the Double Reverse Spin is listed in the Associate Syllabus (Bronze), indicating that it was viewed as a core Quickstep figure from the very beginning.

IDTA TimingThe Quickstep and Basic Principles lists the alternate timing of SQ&Q. Competitors bound to the ISTD syllabus may not use this timing.

Bridge StepThe Ballroom Technique lists the following exit combination:Man's LF Forward Bridge Step into a Tipsy to Right (Turned L).
